The term "soft play" in itself is annoying. The opposite, "hard play", is not in everyday use, and quite rightly so, because it sounds ridiculous. So the word "soft" is redundant. It's just "play". Just say "play".

OT but soft play is definitley a modern term. I remember going to the equivalents when I was young (I'm 25) but when I first heard people taking about soft play, I felt I had missed out. Grin

Realistically I know why the word "soft" is used. It's because the toys involved are soft.

But what else are you going to put in a health-and-safety-approved communal playpen? Wolves? Rusty spikes?

No one has mentioned the 'grubby looking child' playing next to ones Rosie cheeked cherub that smells of talc at all times, giving said perfect child all manner of diseases. And nits. Don't forget the nits.
